INTERPHASE ANALYSIS IN THE CHEMISTRY OF ALIPHATIC NITRO COMPOUNDS. 1. ALKYLATION OF ALKALI METAL SALTS OF TRINITROMETHANE UNDER INTERPHASE CATALYSIS CONDITIONS IN SOLID PHASE-LIQUID SYSTEMS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00961495

Methylation of trinitromethane salts was studied under interphase catalysis conditions in a solid phase (a trinitromethane salt)-liquid (methyl iodide) system in the presence of interphase transfer catalysts - onium salts, cyclic and acyclic polyethers.The dependence of the yield of the methylation product - 1,1,1-trinitroethane - on the nature of the catalyst was also investigated, and based on this, catalysts were found, in whose presence the methylation process is realized more effectively than under homogeneous conditions.
